Her people lost everything when the usurper, Atoc, used an ancient relic to summon ghosts and drive the Illustrians from La Ciudad. Now Ximena’s motivated by her insatiable thirst for revenge, and her rare ability to spin thread from moonlight.When Atoc demands the real Condesa’s hand in marriage, it’s Ximena’s duty to go in her stead.

If Ximena can find it, she can return the true aristócrata to their rightful place.She hunts for the relic, using her weaving ability to hide messages in tapestries for the resistance.

An adventerous South American Tomb Raider! This hotly anticipated companion to Woven in Moonlight follows an outcast Condesa, as she braves the jungle to forge an alliance with the lost city of gold.If the jungle wants you, it will have you...Catalina Quiroga is a Condesa without a country. She’s lost the Inkasisa throne, the loyalty of her people, and her best friend. Banished to the perilous Yanu Jungle, Catalina knows her chances of survival are slim, but that won’t stop her from trying to escape. Her duty is to rule.While running for her life, Catalina is rescued by Manuel, the son of her former general who has spent years searching for allies. With his help, Catalina could find the city of gold that’s home to the fierce Illari people and strike a deal with them for an army to retake her throne.But the elusive Illari are fighting a battle of their own—a mysterious blight is corrupting the jungle, laying waste to everything they hold dear. As a seer, Catalina should be able to help, but her ability to read the future in the stars is as feeble as her survival instincts. While searching for the Illari, Catalina must reckon with her duty and her heart to find her true calling, which is key to stopping the corruption before it destroys the jungle completely.

Le présent ouvrage compare différents traitements de l’espace dramatique et scénique selon une logique diachronique, tout en confrontant deux sphères culturelles à la fois proches et distinctes, voisines et rivales. Il s’appuie sur un corpus « canonique » qui, tout au long d'une période allant du XVIe au XXe siècle, érige progressivement en norme un espace théâtral sémiotisé et ce, en France comme en Espagne. Le théâtre, media de masse efficace, contrôlé quoique intrinsèquement incontrôlable, fut une préoccupation constante pour les pouvoirs publics des deux côtés des Pyrénées. Sur la scène et à sa périphérie gravitent des enjeux sociétaux et politiques fondamentaux pour deux jeunes nations européennes.

Les textes réunis abordent ces questions autour de deux pôles temporellement et esthétiquement opposés : celui de la genèse d'un espace théâtral en voie de normalisation (XVIe–XVIIe siècles) et celui de la consolidation mais aussi de la remise en cause – à travers la notion de hors-scène – du modèle aristotélicien (XIXe–XXe siècles).
